10 Needlessly Hard Early Video Game Bosses

10. Berserker - Gears Of War

At its core, Gears of War is a series about buff men with big friggin’ guns blasting their way to victory through the unfortunate bodies of disgusting monsters. Pull the trigger and have some fun.

The thing with the Berserker is it totally throws players off and totally changes the momentum of the game. Rather than being all about firing as much ammo as possible into anything non-human that moves, the Berserker needs to be taken down by leading it out into the open. Time to use your brains Marcus Fenix, and rest that brawn for just for a few moments.

It’s not just about avoiding the Berserker, it’s about drawing it towards the door and moving at just the right moment so that it pops it off the hinges. Repeat this a few times and you can drag the aggravated beast out into the open air where you can take it down in spectacular fashion with the laser-guided Hammer of Dawn.

To some extent the battle is all about knowing your surroundings as getting caught in a corner or stuck on a pillar can cause your very squished downfall quickly. With no way to brute force the battle, you’ve got only the dodge button and your wits to see you through.

Hope you limbered up…
